Fyi, I'm not negating evolution per se. I'm operating strictly within the realm of the empiricism-based scientific method. It should not be so sensitive to scrutiny and skepticism.
So creationism or not, let me pose the simple challenge to you as well:
Can you name a single species whose speciation-by-random-mutation we have actually observed?
You see, the hard fact, which many of my beloved scientistic friends have yet to come to terms with, is that technically speaking, the speciation-by-random-mutation is a scientifically invalid hypothesis because it is not even falsifiable. In other words, it is a mere conjecture (and sadly nowadays even a doctrinal belief) like any other, from an honest, objective, naturalistic point of view. But I don't even need to get into that because most of my beloved atheists will already have more of an impulsive emotional reaction to that rather than facing it head-on.
- FrustratedMonky 2y ago"actually observed" Maybe the problem here is you disagree with what an 'observation' is. If you are saying, I must physically see speciation or plate tectonics, myself, within my lifetime. And thus any events that occur over longer time spans, when I'll be dead, and not observing them, thus they cannot be proven? Anything with a long time scale is by your definition, invalid science?
